Sensational Silks, Dawn Gerardot 2025-2026

Dawn Gerardot B-A

If you have never painted on silk before, you need to give it a try! The colors are so bright & bold and the process is addictive. The theme is of your choosing. I can help you with that. No previous experience necessary. Each session is 4 weeks long. To help with supply costs of the class, I offer a kit which includes everything you need to complete a 22×22 inch project. See class material for details.

Color Theory Workshop, Helen Solomon 2025-2026

Helen Solomon B-A

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday 9:00-12:00

Color is a vibrant presence in our everyday lives, seen in the hues of flowers, the patterns of clothing, and the shades of office walls. It serves as an essential tool for defining spaces, enhancing designs, and crafting visual aesthetics. Color holds the power to profoundly affect our emotions and psychological states, making it a critical component in the realms of design and art. Artists, designers, and curators skillfully apply the principles of color theory to create works that resonate and foster a positive experience for those who engage with them. Join us for this immersive workshop, where you will explore the intricacies of color through hands-on activities. All materials and workbooks will be provided, ensuring you have everything you need to delve into the fascinating world of color.
